It’s a busy week with the Springtide Bloom festival and the new Expeditions Unleashed. Mutated expeditions are on the Season Track and mutated caches contain a couple of the new artifacts, so it’s worth making some time for them too. We have some beautiful synergy

It’s a busy week, with Rabbit’s Revenge and the new Outpost Rush map both up. If you get some time between those, we have a Void mutation and the ever-popular Glacial Tarn in rotation. Let’s hope we don’t get too many players abandoning the Random

There’s some synergy between the Corrupted expeditions and Void mutation this week, although Oppressive is going to make M2+ annoying for healers. We’ve got a selection of tanky artifacts up for offer and you can use your Void Protection in the Crassus event between runs.

So, no Glacial Tarn again this week, showing AGS do not respond to pressure from the community. To be honest, this just continues to highlight the problems with the mutation rotation system. It would have been nice if Season 7 had provided a real revamp.

With the release of Season 7, this is our first go at Unified Mutations. We’ve been pretty lucky to draw two synergistic expeditions for our Void mutation – Tempest and Dynasty. The curse is also a gentle one, I’d much prefer a Dip and Nae

We have a trifecta of synergy this week, with a Nature mutation for Genesis, a Fire mutation for the Forge, and a Void mutation for Tempest. So less swapping around for boss fights this week, makes it nice and chill. We’re thinking Empyrean Forge might

With Update 1.1.4 happening this evening, let’s hope the mutations don’t rotate around again. They’ve been stable for the last few patches so I’m fairly confident they won’t. If you can drag yourself away from the Winter Convergence, or OPR with weapon and item fixes,

With no Savage Divide or Ennead in sight once again, is it time for AGs to reconsider the random nature of their mutation rotation? Being unable to even try for an artifact for the fifth week is quite disheartening for many of our new players,

We have some pretty cool mutations this week, with an Icebound Glacial Tarn and an Eternal Tempest Heart. In both cases the damage type from the mutation matches elemental damage that is native to the expedition, making it easier to run with one set of

Not long to go for New World: Aeternum now, why don’t we run through a couple of mutated expeditions while we wait? As much as people are worried that 725GS will make expeditions not worth doing, I’m more concerned that the removal of Transmog Token
